Q&A charity evening with captain Tyrone Mings

Aston Villa is excited to host a Q&A charity evening with Tyrone Mings at Villa Park to raise funds for the Aston Villa Foundation.

Join us in the Holte Suite on Monday, March 14 from 6.30pm, with club captain Tyrone also alongside Aston Villa Women duo Rachel Corsie and Ruesha Littlejohn. 

Hosted by TV presenter & Foundation ambassador Michelle Owen, all proceeds from the event - which also includes a drinks reception, two-course dinner and auctions - will go to the Aston Villa Foundation.

Some of the funds raised from the evening will provide counselling, emotional and mental wellbeing support for young people across Foundation programmes. They will also offer a football coaching bursary scheme for inner-city youngsters to obtain FA Level One and Two qualifications, to support local grassroots clubs and community organisations.

Join us for the special charity evening at Villa Park, which includes:

• 6.30pm - Arrival and drinks reception in the Holte Suite Foyer, including a selection of beers, Prosecco and soft drinks
• Q&A with AVFC Women players Rachel Corsie and Ruesha Littlejohn
• Two-course meal to be served
• Q&A with AVFC captain Tyrone Mings (guests will be invited to submit questions before dinner via a submission slip)
• Live auction, silent auction and raffle

Table of 10 people - £600 plus VAT

Individual places will be available on shared tables - £65 plus VAT per person

Please note, the event is strictly over 16s only.

Aston Villa Interventions Manager Kate Roberts said: "The Foundation’s Interventions projects are vital in supporting young people across Birmingham.

"Many of the participants on our programmes are from areas where crime levels are high, and our programmes help to ensure they do not go down the wrong path. We are so grateful to Tyrone and the support he is providing, which will help so many of our young participants."

Centre-back Mings initially joined Villa on loan in January 2019, helping to guide the club to a memorable play-off final triumph at Wembley and promotion to the Premier League.

He duly signed permanently that summer, was awarded the captain’s armband at the start of this season and has gone on to make over 100 appearances for the club, scoring seven goals.

Mings’ commanding form for Villa earned international recognition and he made his England debut in October 2019 before being named in the Three Lions squad that reached the Euro 2020 final.

Aston Villa Women midfielder Littlejohn, a Republic of Ireland international, joined the club in September while Scotland defender Corsie arrived in January, and the pair will share their experiences of playing at the top level of the women’s game.
